I’m trying to identify more plants growing in my area. Starting with this tree, which I love to see in bloom. I realized we have a little nursery of young ones (also blooming) inside our garden fence behind the shed.
The guide “Forest Trees of Maine” says about this tree:
…not used commercially and has little value except as a protection and cover for the soil on recent clearings or burned areas.
